PS: I am tired and accumulated. I have been trying hard to resolve it, but I can’t resolve it. I really can’t write today. I’m very sorry for the late publication.
Chu Li was practicing the Wanxiang Guizong in Prince An's Mansion. The more he practiced, the more wonderful he became.
The deeper Wanxiang Guizong cultivates, the more he feels that his mind is agile and integrated with the heaven and earth. It seems that he can see every move around him. He can predict it before the wind blows, and he can predict it before it rains.
Rain is coming.
I don’t know if he can predict everything if he keeps practicing like this. He is like a god, knowing everything.
Prince Bao's invitation interrupted his practice.
He was sitting on the couch in the bedroom, and the bright sunlight made the room very bright.
The screams of Leng Qiu and Leng Qing could be heard from outside. The two women were sparring with each other. Their swords were fierce. Even though they were using wooden swords, it still hurt unbearably when they stabbed their bodies. Neither of them let go.
Holding this invitation, Chu Li frowned.
When he first heard about Leng Shoujiang's assassination case, he had a vague sense of foreboding. He felt that the matter was not simple and had a sinister atmosphere. His intuition was telling him to stay away from the case.
Although his martial arts is strong, he is not invincible in the world. Not to mention the masters of the gods, there are also many masters of the heavens and gods who can defeat him. I am not afraid. If he really harms Xiao Shi and the Duke of Guo, the sin will be huge.
.
Leng Shoushi and Leng Shoushan came forward to intercede in person. He didn't want to agree at first, but later it was half because of Prince Bao's face and he also had a good impression of Leng Shoushi. The girls in Qingyun Tower did not suffer under his hands.
So he did a favor and didn't let the Secret Guard Mansion get involved.
This was also for the sake of Dong Qifei's and his friends' lives. Even though the secret guards were the Emperor's most caring subordinates and their identities were too scary to kill them casually, it was not that difficult to kill them if they really wanted to.
After catching Zhu Wu, he realized that he had underestimated the horror of this matter. It involved the prince's rebellion, which meant that he was on the side of death, and he would end up dead if he came even a little closer.
Even if he could escape with his martial arts skills, Chu Li's identity would be over. From now on, he would have to change his name and would not be able to live openly in the divine capital.
As soon as Prince Bao's invitation arrived, it meant that they had asked for a confession and told Prince Bao.
Chu Li believed that Prince Bao would not get involved in this matter.
Over the years, Prince Bao has honed his ability to hide one's strength and bide his time. Naturally, he would hide as far away from such a thing as possible. How could he move forward? The worst outcome would be that the palace would be raided!
Thinking of this, he put down the invitation and decided to go to the banquet.
Prince Bao's Mansion is magnificent and far superior to Prince An's Mansion. It occupies an area about twice as big as Prince An's Mansion. It is really a corridor where horses can be run and boats can be used on the lake.
They sat in a small pavilion on the lake in the back garden, accompanied by Prince Bao and Leng Shoushi.
Except for three people, there were no other guards in the back garden, and all the hidden guards retreated.
"Manager Chu, thank you very much. Without your help this time, it would be impossible to find the murderer." Leng Shoushi picked up the white jade cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be polite. I have received the identity deed, but I really misunderstood it."
"The chief manager wants to push out a beauty like Miss Yuqing?" Leng Shoushi said.
Chu Li sighed: "One more person means more worries. My current situation is not suitable to involve Miss Yuqing. She is living a good life in Qingyun Tower. I can only trouble the prince to take more care of her."
"The chief manager thinks there is danger?" Leng Shoushi frowned.
Chu Li nodded: "Both princes must be careful about assassination. That ancient member of the family is not a good person. Once he finds out that you may have noticed something, I am afraid he will attack decisively."
After Leng Shoujiang's incident, the Crown Prince's bodyguards must have increased, so there was no need for him to talk too much. Since he was a guest, there was no harm in mentioning it casually.
Leng Shoushi snorted: "These guys are so brave!"
"What do you think, Your Highness?" Chu Li looked at Prince Bao, who had been silent all this time: "Who should be in charge of this matter?"
Prince Bao shook his head and said: "I can't explain, and I don't want to find out. It's better to stay far away."
"I'm afraid that the prince wants to hide but can't." Chu Li said: "The prince must have had a plan for a long time."
Prince Bao said: "Chu Li, you should understand that Prince Ping's matter is the emperor's heart. It is related to the struggle for the throne. If you are not careful, it will be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan."
Chu Li nodded and said: "Understood."
He was not afraid, but the Duke's Palace and Prince An's Palace had to be afraid.
Prince Bao said: "I have watched Prince Ping since he was a child and know him very well. He is bold and courageous. He has always spoken out against the emperor and said whatever he said. He has never disdained any conspiracy."
Chu Li said: "The prince feels that this time it is not Prince Ping."
"But people are subject to change." Prince Bao said, "Especially when it comes to the throne, no one can be sure."
Chu Li frowned and said, "If it's not King Ping, who can convince Duke Ji?"
Leng Shoushi said: "If you want me to tell you, tell the emperor directly and see how the emperor handles it."
Prince Bao glared at him and said nothing.
Chu Li shook his head and said: "People's hearts are unpredictable. How does the emperor know that you are sincere? Besides, the prince's identity is too sensitive, and the emperor will think that you have ulterior motives."
Leng Shoushi snorted: "It's really troublesome!"
He opened Qingyun Tower firstly for fun, secondly to make friends, and thirdly to inquire about some secret information and help his father, but these are not that troublesome. With Prince Bao as his father, everything goes smoothly.
This incident made him think too much and he felt very weak and powerless. This feeling was extremely uncomfortable.
The three of them were talking when an old servant came over from a distance. He was tall and tall with a white beard. He came forward and bowed and saluted: "Master, Prince Shan was assassinated last night."
"Assassinated?!" Leng Shoushi frowned and said, "Where is he?"
"Prince Shan is fine, thanks to the tight security." The old man whispered: "I heard that one of the guards died. The assassin was very powerful and has escaped."
Leng Shoushi turned to look at Prince Bao: "Father, could it be...?"
Prince Bao looked at Chu Li: "I guess this case will be handed over to the Secret Guard Mansion."
Chu Li frowned and nodded.
Leng Shoushi sneered: "Dare to die!"
Chu Li said: "Your Majesty, it's best not to leave the house first."
"Well, he will stay in the mansion for a while." Prince Bao said solemnly.
"Father," Leng Shoushi snorted, "They want to silence us, should we just wait obediently and not fight back?"
"Don't be impatient when things happen." Prince Bao said in a deep voice, "What if it wasn't them who did it?"
Leng Shoushi frowned and thought for a while without saying anything.
Prince Bao said: "Chu Li, if this matter is handed over to your Secret Guard Mansion, please help investigate."
"...Yes, Your Majesty." Chu Li finally agreed with clasped fists.
Prince Bao held the pot and filled the jade cup for him: "I know it's difficult for you, but I can't let go of this matter being left to other people in the Secret Guard Mansion."
Chu Li said: "I will do my best."
He secretly sighed that he couldn't hide. The last time he assassinated Mei Yin, he failed to find out. If there was another assassination, the Secret Guard Mansion might want Mei Yin to take over.
